Your boyfriend has lovingly cooked you a meal, and you really wish you were enjoying it, but sometimes disaster strikes and things just don’t work out that way. Consider moments like these as opportunities to respond with affection and deepen your relationship. In this article, based on a survey answered by guys, we introduce 9 ways to smooth things over if your boyfriend’s cooking is a disaster.

1. Be happy he cooked for you: “I’m happy, because I know you put thought into making this.”


“Just what a loving girlfriend would say! I’d be really touched by an affectionate comment like that.” Express your appreciation of the spirit of the gesture, if not the actual taste of the food. Ask him to make it for you again, and he may take it as an opportunity to improve.
